VAPOR-BURNER FOR sTovEs.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 262,172, dated August 1, 1882. Application iled June 14, 1882. (No model.)

To all whom may concern Be it known that I, MARTIN L. BEST, a citizen of the United States, residing at Canton, in the county ofStark and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Vapor-Burners for Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part ofthis specification, and to the letters and fig ures of reference marked thereon.

Figure l of the drawings is a perspective view of my invention; Fig.2, a sectional View thereof, and Fig. 3 a modification in section.

The present invention has relation to certain new and valuable improvements in that class of Vapor-burners used in connection with cooking and other stoves, tinmens {ire-pots, and other like heat-generating devices.

The object ofthe invention is to produce a more steady and intense heat upon the gasoline immediately under-the burner-cap to more ett'ectually vaporize it into gas, thereby rendering the burner more eii'ectual in the generation of heat.

The invention consists in the details of construction Whereby the above results are obtained, as shown in the drawings, hereinafter described, and subsequently pointed'out in the claim.

In the accompanyin g drawings, A represents the burner-cap, which rests upon the disk at, secured around the mixing-chamber B. The

disk a has a depending tube, b, for conducting the surplus gas into the furnace C for the purpose of heating the same, the gasoline being vaporized in the passage c and conducted to the Aneedle-point d, from whence it passes into the mixing-chamber B. The passage o communicates with a tube, D, to the upper end of 4o which is secured a suitable drip-cup, E, for heating the furnace from the burning gasoline therein when starting the burner.

- To the end of the tube D is suitably connected a'T shape coupling, F, having fitted to 45 it a valve, e. for closing or regulating the supply of gasoline to the tube I).

The furnace C, as will be noticed, has three sides, as shown atf, the wings g forming the.

bottom, thereby inclosing the heat and ren- 5o dering the effect upon the gasoline to vaporize it more perfectly.

In Fig. 3 I have shown aburner particularly adapted to tinmens lire-pots, wherein the supply-tube is arranged horizontally instead of' 55 vertically.

Having nowA fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

In a heat-generating vapor-burner, the coni- 6o bination, with the burner-cap A, disk a, tube b, and mixing-chamber B, ot' the passage o and furnace G, arranged directly under the disk a, and having three inclosing-sides,f, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribedmy name in the presence of two witnesses.

MARTIN L. BEST.
